The Kansas City Chiefs are one of those football teams who have a name that can often stir up some controversy. That is because their name references Native Americans, which many Native Americans and advocacy groups think is a way to tokenize Native Americans instead of accepting them as no different than any other ethnic group. That type of controversy can make it difficult to design an acceptable helmet.
These simple, yet refined helmet ideas would make anyone on either side of the name argument happy. They range from classy to cool. Three of them still opt for the arrowhead icon, which some more sensitive people might find offense with, but how can you deny how cool the gold outlined arrowhead looks? Then again, the giant K and C in the bottom right design stands out and makes a big statement.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
